    Thanks Jamey for the handshake at the place in Portland about 10 years ago with the hippy chick meant more to me than you know

    This song hit home so hard that I cry every time I listen to it. I'm a recovering meth addict, clean just 6 months. It cost me my children, my marriage, my career as a nurse and everything else that I held dear. If you're a recovering addict, you're NOT alone!! By God's hand and the love of my children I am still alive.

      I have done cocaine many times in a church parking lot in between my home and my friends lake front home he had at 18 years of age. We always stopped there to get our fill before we walked into his lake house where the party was waiting. Thank God I got away from the coke thatedto smoking crack snorting lines while waiting to hit the pipe again and using oxycontin as a crutch in between buying my cocaine.

    Lost my dad from cocaine laced fentanyl in August, he struggled with addiction my whole life. Using, In and out of jail and prison. I love him tremendously regardless unconditionally. Growing up it was just us. Him and me. This was the last song we ever listened to together, I put it on and told him it was his song. He cried. I used with him as a teenager, but I have been clean 16 years now. I stopped the cycle.

    Story of my life!!!
    20 months and 3 days sober, thank God for the love of a woman to get my head out of my ass. I did indeed squander my chance with her but her influence saved my life!

    I love the comments reminds me of how I used to be. Never had probation went straight to prison at 24 1st case 9 years for an OZ. Long road 17 years of my adult life in prison. I’m not big on using the words clean, sober for myself. I changed my life for 13 years and well, hit me by surprise. I want to be like all of you again. I read the comments to think harder about where my life is right now. Hopefully one of these days I’ll get back on track. I’m in a bad way, pretty broken. Too much has happened this past 6 years. I’m trying to make sense of it all. I will get it together again, I’ve got to. I have 2 Harleys collecting dust. I just want to wake up one day and not hurt so much. Thanks for listening

We all battle our demons, Jamey keeps it real and reminds us how precious life is, I commend him for that, just a normal guy like us, didn't sell out to Nashville. Thank you Jamey, keep it true country brother!!!

      Adonai has kept you in this world. Sometimes we have to go through struggles and hardship. I have found almost all of us that have struggled with addiction is because we have been battling something broken inside of us. With Elohim, our creator. We can heal and our God needs us to help each other. That's why we are still here. After I lost my Dad, husband and sister in nine months, all I did was pray for God to let me go to sleep and never wake up. That wasn't His plan. We have to lay it at His feet. He has a plan for everyone of us. It's His will not ours. He will reveal that plan to you. You are so very important, that's why He created you. Lean on Him. I blamed myself for my husband's death. I couldn't except that he overdosed and I started doing meth at 45. I recently got out of prison, was down for a year. I've been sober for 15 months. It's wonderful, I'm high on life because I forgave myself and quit blaming myself. The key ...learn how to love yourself. He created you and that means you are precious. My prayers to you for healing.

      My son was a heroin addict for years and OD and almost died 2 times. So I can relate in a small way to what you went through... The public is stupid about this stuff. They think all you have to do is have enough willpower and you are done. And maybe you did... good for you. But my son required rehad…. otherwise he would be dead. Willpower is part, but it is much bigger than just willpower. I am proud of you Jesse. Don't ever fuck with drugs EVEN a single time or the monkey will be back. The only outcome of these drugs is misery and eventually death. Seriously don't even experiment for a single time. You are sober now, stay sober. DONT FUCK WITH FENTANYL LACED HEROIN EVER AGAIN.

    It’s sad, my night in shining armor found me and saved me from my self destruction for 27 years. Gave us a beautiful son in the presses. 2020 took him from me and I’m as low as I can be. To be truthful I have the needle just need the drug. I do love my son. ❤😢

    Had someone very dear to me that lived this life , he even sent me this song ...
    I loved him but we lived totally different lifestyles . He recently passed away at the young age of 52 ... Now , today this song hits my heart just a bit harder . I'll forever miss him !
    Sober he was one hell of a man 💗

    I listen to this song everyday to remind me of everything that I lost while using. I had a family a business and a comfortable living.. I passed it all away until I was homeless for 3 years. Then I heard this song I'm coming up a have an apartment, a car, and I'm building a new business that has been strong for a year now. I used to say you don't have to be perfect to be a perfect solution, you just have to show up. I'm glad I showed up. The perfect solution wasn't me, it was Jamey Johnson with this song and the man will never know it. So show up. You may not ever know but you are someone's perfect solutions. Thanks for the personal stories it makes the day start off great knowing there are so many of us getting through the day together. Keep showing up and keep crushing your demons.

    Been sober for a few years now. I didn't think taking pills a doctor gives you could turn in to what it did! Opiates are no joke!! Messed up my life and family for years!! Thank you Lord for getting my life and family back!!

      NOBODY will understand if they've not been through opiates and the pleasure/pain that it brings. It's impossible to describe and understand, just like I'll NEVER understand childbirth.... If you haven't been through it, just don't even try. Props to you for beating the devil's dandruff so far. Never say NEVER, that's my only advice. 1 day at a time

I know for a fact that overcomming rough spells arent always just about you sometimes its about how others see you deal with loss strugle pain and difficult time that hell you got keep weathering the storm and know rhat sooner or later it will pass
